'Stormgate' Offers Fans the Opportunity to Invest Prior to Early Access

The developer of the upcoming real-time strategy game Stormgate, which includes former Starcraft staff, is offering fans the opportunity to invest in the company. Frost Giant Studios has launched a “crowd-equity campaign” through StartEngine, allowing fans to acquire shares in the company. Interested parties can reserve a share ahead of March as an indicator of potential interest. Currently, almost £300,000 has been reserved from 177 investors. The aim of this equity campaign is to support a strategic marketing campaign and prepare for Stormgate’s early access launch this summer. Frost Giant Studios wants to self-publish the game with direct support from the player community to bypass industry instability. The CEO of Frost Giant Studios, Tim Morten, stated that the real-time strategy genre has not declined but has faced increased popularity in other genres. Stormgate aims to break down barriers and bring the RTS genre back into the spotlight.
